Becoming an immortal and ancestor begins with the golden toad spitting out money.

Chapter 124 Negotiations Successful, But a Ghost Blocks the Way

Not long ago, Yan Tianchou saw that Su Jique's Yin Soul Spirit had successfully awakened and even mentioned the plan to become a god through bloodline.

Su Ji disagreed with this.

Now that Su Ji has learned the whereabouts of Zhang Xiaolian's father, he sets his sights on Wusheng's hometown.

In other words, Su Ji had his eye on the incense offerings and prayers provided by the descendants of ghosts.

Yan Tianchou couldn't help but exclaim, "Rather than having offspring, it would be better to have all the descendants of the ancestors in the world at our disposal..."

Long before Su Ji and Zhang Xiaolian developed the Yin-Yang Realm Delicacies, Su Ji had his eye on the huge market of ghosts and gods, wanting to do business with them.

However, Su Ji's status was not high enough at the time, so he did not dare to offer too many delicacies to the gods of the mountain temple. When exchanging information with the White Turtle Spirit General of Qili Lake, he only secretly offered three delicacies from the Yin-Yang Realm.

Now, Su Ji is not only about to become the guardian spirit of the City God Temple, but he has also tacitly accepted his identity as the reincarnation of a cultivator who has reached the pinnacle of cultivation.

Not to mention Yang Jun, Di Yang She Jun, Yue Jun and Di Yin Jingling, even the City God placed great hopes on Su Ji. In addition, the Earth God's words gave Su Ji the idea of ​​entering the market of Wusheng's hometown.

Knowing the mystery of the golden toad, the local deity didn't say much and readily agreed to the matter.

But the local earth god didn't forget to remind you: "All businesses in Wusheng's hometown will have a portion of their profits taken as underworld taxes by the City God Temple. You should be prepared for that..."

The pantheon doesn't value treasures; what it values ​​most is faith. Wusheng's hometown is the place that provides the most faith, so it's normal for them to levy taxes on it.

Su Ji nodded and said, "The City God Temple collects taxes, so it must also make money for the ghost cultivators who do business. Otherwise, no one would do business at all. I'm determined to do this business!"

In reality, if taxes are too high, ordinary people cannot survive, and the same should be true in Wusheng's hometown.

Most importantly, a wisp of divine power can only be converted into three units of computing power, but it has great value due to certain characteristics, and Su Ji will definitely make a profit during the transaction.

The two traveled together and soon arrived at the City God Temple.

It was a little past eight in the morning when the Earth God went to find Scholar Deng, who had finished get off work, while Su Ji went to exchange for Earth Yin Spiritual Essence.

This time, Su Ji directly exchanged for three portions of Earth Yin Spirit Essence, spending 10,080 strands of divine power. This not only covered what he and Zhang Xiaolian needed for their subsequent foundation building, but could also potentially be used on Mo Linglong.

As for the source of so much divine power, Su Ji didn't even need to explain.

Last night, when Yuejun and the Earth Spirit were collecting Earth Mica, not only were they observed by the gatekeeper deities, but the City God was also present. The sale of more than a dozen portions of Earth Mica would have yielded more than 20,000 strands of divine power.

Before long, Su Ji was greeted by Grand Scholar Deng. The meeting place was the two rooms at the end of the market.

Now, with the help of Chen Dianshi, Zhou Lan has secured the lease for the restaurant, while Zhou Wen has bought the two houses with the help of Zhang Xiaolian's uncle.

Upon learning of these causes and effects, Grand Secretary Deng couldn't help but laugh and said, "My great-grandson is an upright man. It was only because my great-granddaughter spoke up that he would have sought connections to get things done..."

Deng Daxueshi was very confident in his family's traditions.

Then, the three of them went to the paper house that Deng Daxue had given to Su Ji and began to negotiate the transaction of incense and vows at the paper-cutting shop in Wusheng's hometown.

It should be noted that Zhang Xiaolian's father was merely a disciple of Deng Dashi, and the real profits from the paper-cutting shop in Wusheng's hometown were in the hands of Deng Dashi.

"Fellow Daoist's secret method of activating the dantian is of immeasurable value to me. Why talk about a deal? I would even give you my paper-cutting shop!"

Scholar Deng was sincere, but Su Ji's attention was not limited to the paper-cutting shop.

So Su Ji smiled and said, "How can we discuss a deal without a banquet? Please, Mr. Deng, take a seat!"

As he said this, Su Ji took out a series of delicacies from the Yin-Yang Realm and placed them on the table inside the paper house.

"Ok!"

Even after his death, Grand Secretary Deng enjoyed more than twenty years of delicious food from both the mortal and spiritual realms, but in terms of the richness of aroma alone, none could compare to the dish before him.

After everyone was seated, Grand Scholar Deng couldn't resist taking a bite and exclaimed, "Delicious! Delicious! It truly lives up to the reputation of the delicacies carefully prepared by Fellow Daoist!" Su Ji and the Earth God simply smiled.

If the delicacies of the Yin-Yang Realm weren't involved in real dreams, Grand Scholar Deng would have already learned that these delicacies were made by Zhang Xiaolian.

Su Ji could only laugh and ask, "Does Deng Gong think these delicacies can be sold at a high price?"

Immediately, Grand Secretary Deng was taken aback, then a look of realization dawned on his face.

"In Wusheng's hometown, some ghosts spend money lavishly every day, with inexhaustible incense offerings and prayers. If these delicacies were sold, even if there was only one table a day, it would probably earn more than my paper-cutting shop!"

In reality, Su Ji has only managed to recruit a few people: Zhou Lan, Zhou Wen, the Li family couple, and Li Jiahe. The reason for this is that the Zhang family has no one left.

Now, Su Ji has come into contact with the Deng family, Zhang Xiaolian's mother's family. Putting aside everything else, at least things are starting to look up in Wusheng's hometown.

So the three of them ate and discussed, and that set the tone for the matter of Wusheng's hometown.

The paper-cutting shop in Wusheng's hometown continues to operate, managed by a paper-figure shopkeeper and paper-figure assistants. It can survive simply by providing the supply of goods, and at most, it needs to find an ancestor from the Deng family to settle accounts.
The restaurants in Wusheng's hometown were managed by Zhang Xiaolian's father, who could even open five restaurants at once in the east, west, south, north, and center, adjusting them according to the customs of different places.

Those with money can eat all kinds of fancy meals, while those without money can eat some vegetarian noodles; it's all about getting a taste.

For Zhang Xiaolian, there was little difference between a bowl of noodles and a large pot of noodles; there was no profound or logical difference, it was just something to reminisce about.

Of course, if Zhang Xiaolian felt it was too much, she would use scarcity marketing to specifically make money from ghosts who had made many offerings and prayers.

The three chatted happily, and Grand Scholar Deng even made a pact to visit Wusheng's hometown through the Yin Gate that night, and to bring out the incense and vows he had accumulated over the years.

After the local deity departed, Su Ji headed to the Lotus Wonderland of the Great Sun Spirit Realm.

After his experience at the Yin Gate last night, Su Ji still wanted to comprehend another low-grade Yang-type profound technique. Even if there wasn't enough time, as the Sun-Monitoring Spirit General, he could freely enter and exit to cultivate.
However, after cultivating in the Lotus Wonderland for a whole day, Su Ji found no new clues about mystical arts, except for a few mid-grade spiritual materials.

Su Ji was not in a hurry.

Putting aside everything else, even the Yin Gate formed from the remains of the previous generation of Earth Yin Spirits contains many mysteries, not to mention the living Earth Yang Serpent Lord. Once the Great Sun Immortal Realm plan is implemented, Su Ji will have plenty of opportunities to comprehend the mysteries of the Earth Yang Serpent Lord.

Su Ji left the Great Sun Spirit Realm early and returned to the Earth God Temple alone, and the journey was uneventful.

Not long after, he obtained the results of his "idle" cultivation today. In addition to the significant increase in the progress of meridian transformation, Su Ji also received some good news.

Based on his current cultivation progress, he will be able to reach the peak of Foundation Establishment in less than two months.

"Being able to establish a foundation in a hundred days is considered to have some talent. After cultivating the Dantian without leaking it using the secret method of activating the Dantian, it is indeed of great benefit to cultivation!"

This is only the current situation. Not to mention that Su Ji's meridians have not been fully transformed yet, the upper limit of the lower dantian can be further increased as the foundation building process progresses.

After Su Ji had cultivated at the Earth God Temple for three hours, he left behind all the earth's spiritual essence and went alone to the City God Temple.

Unexpectedly, Su Ji had only gone halfway when he encountered a figure blocking his way.

"Black Fish Demon?"

Back then, the catfish demon coveted the Pearl Maiden's dream-illusion abilities and wanted to get rid of Qian Feng as soon as possible, so it didn't hesitate to invite the black fish demon, who secretly devoured demons and ghosts.

Su Ji stepped in to help, allowing Qian Feng to gain the upper hand over the Black Fish Demon. By the time the Earth God appeared, Qian Feng had already chased the Black Fish Demon to the bottom of the lake.

Later, Su Ji learned from Qian Feng that the Black Fish Demon took advantage of the Bloodline Demon King's devouring of the Catfish Leader's corpse and fled into a water vein, disregarding its own life.

The Black Fish Demon has been missing for almost half a month, and Su Ji thought it had already died in the water veins.

Unexpectedly, tonight the black fish demon not only came, but also carried a figure exuding the aura of a demon king on its back.
